Abstract

We reconsider the problem of shear free turbulent diffusion in a rotating frame, rotating about x1. Therefore turbulence is generated at a vibrating grid in the x2 − x3 plane and diffuses away from the grid in x1-direction. The flow geometry is given in figure 1. An important property of this flow is that there is no mean flow-velocity. With the help of Lie-group methods Reynoldsstress transport models can be analyzed for this kind of flow in a rotating frame. From the analysis it can be found that the turbulent diffusion only influences a finite domain. Insertion of this solution in the model equations shows that even fully nonlinear Reynolds-stress transport models (nonlinear in the Reynolds-stresses for the pressure-strain model) are insensitive to rotation for this type of flow. To improve this serious shortcoming of these models, a new model equation which is fully nonlinear in the mean-velocity gradient is needed. There appears to be one one-point model which may account for system rotation for this type of flow. It is the second-moment closure model by Sj¨ogren and Johansson [3] which is nonlinear in the mean-velocity gradient. Therefore new model equations for the pressure-strain-correlation and the diffusion term have been developed along the lines of this model.
